CNN's Jim Acosta Rips Trump In Defiant On-Air Announcement He's Leaving





CNN's Jim Acosta Rips Trump In Defiant On-Air Announcement He's Leaving: 'No Time To Bow Down To A Tyrant'
...CNN CEO Mark Thompson and his network announced sweeping changes this week — including the likely exile of anchor Jim Acosta in a move seen by some as a capitulation to President Donald Trump — in what Thompson described as a “shift” toward “platforms and products where the audience themselves are shifting.”



CNN has been morphing into Fox News since the Clinton years. No surprise here.


He definitely got pushed out because he wouldn’t do what Bash , Tapper and the rest are doing and you can clearly tell from his tone. - frank-jashne

I don't believe in the death penalty. Not because Jesus threw out the Old Testament's "eye for an eye' revenge with his sermon on the mount, but because it is not a deterrent to crime and is legalized murder for revenge.

Trump: "the military entered California" 

There are f--king 17 military bases in California. There isn’t some giant valve in California that Newsom has closed. All of this is so goddamn stupid. I can’t believe a single person would believe it. Trump is so goddamn incompetent. - Alex Cole







Trump wants civil unrest so he can declare martial law. - Molly Ploffkins

To Those Thinking of Leaving The US...

After the election interference by Jeb and George W. Bush in 2000, I knew I had to reinvest outside of the US. I slowly sold half my assets before 9-11-2001 (pure luck) and by January 2002 bought property in Costa Rica, when it was still very affordable. I knew Bush would ruin the economy and would go after Saddam Hussein just as his father did. It was not rocket science.

Heads up, folks. Trump is George W. Bush on steroids.

In 2009-2010 Costa Rica cured my cancer. A few months later, Costa Rica protected me from my husband, when the US wouldn't.

If you do decide to relocate to another country, don't hesitate to rent until you get a feel for the land and the new society. 

Moving from the USA was one of my best life decisions, not only for my pocketbook but for my sanity.




I still love what good is left in the USA.

Trump Deportation Forces Told To 'Dress For The Cameras' — Wear 'Raid Jackets' To 'Generate Media Attention' Say CNN Sources
President Donald Trump’s immigration officials have been instructed to “dress for the cameras” according to sources who told CNN that every participant must wear “raid jackets” to maximize media attention on the mass deportation effort.



Colombia accepted 475 deportation flights from the United States from 2020 to 2024, fifth behind Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico and El Salvador. It accepted 124 deportation flights in 2024. They did it b/c they were asked by Joe Biden & it worked. Creating fake crises is Trump's MO. - Henry M. Rosenberg
